just mount it under your car, as opposed to inside it.

if its all done up tight it shouldnt be to bad, you can always get a boxz and vent it to the outside, which is what i would do if it was fume city

OR you could fix the real problem instead of dicking around and creating new problems for yourself. If Nark's car has no problems with a factory RA65 fuel system, you sure as hell wont.
Stop causing problems for yourself.

les: a different FPR is going to contribute 0% to solving poor fuel pickup problems.
if you're sucking air into the fuel line, a different FPR will not help out at all. not one bit. zilch. 2/3's of fuck all. nadda.
Just get an EFI tank and a pump suited for it (e.g. if it's an intank setup, buy a walpro intank pump off ebay, if it's an external pump tank, get a bosch pump from a Vx commode).
